Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the fully vaccinated director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, announced last week that she came down with COVID-19 and was experiencing mild symptoms.
The agency said she was up to date with her vaccinations and was “isolating at home and will participate in her planned meetings virtually.” She joins the ever-growing list of politicians and health “officials” who sell the vaccine and come down with the virus themselves.
Dr. Anthony Fauci announced in July that he came down with the virus, took the anti-viral, Paxlovid, and then came down with the virus again in what is known as a “Paxlovid Rebound.” (See “QUADRUPLE-VAXXED FAUCI GETS COVID, GETS SICK,” “FULLY VAXXED, FULL OF COVID, FULL OF CRAP,” “GET VAXXED, GET COVID: THE ONES THAT GOT IT BRAGGED THEY GOT THE JAB” and “TOP COVID WAR AND U.S. WAR-HAWKS GET HIT WITH VIRUS.”)
Walensky has been one of the government’s top promoters of the vaccine, and even took a rare step in September 2021 by overruling agency advisers that did not recommend boosters for younger, at-risk workers like teachers and nurses. The updated (bivalent) boosters became available in the U.S. last month.
But Walensky has faced criticism for how the CDC responded to the COVID-19 outbreak and she promised a review back in August. She told Politico earlier this month that it was essential that the agency communicates with Americans more quickly.
“In a pandemic, you don’t have time to wait. You have to take action to help people,” she said Walenksy. “We haven’t been able to be as nimble as we’ve needed to be.”
TRENDPOST: In this and previous Trends Journals we have reported extensively on the vaccine rollout during Operation Warp Speed and the subsequent rush to get the third jab into American arms. (See “BIDEN’S BOOSTER PLAN: VAX YOU,” “ISRAEL: COVID DRUG MUCH LESS EFFECTIVE THAN WHAT WE’VE BEEN SOLD” and “COVID BOOSTERS ARE THE FUTURE.”)
The CDC has been inconsistent with its messaging from vaccine effectiveness to social distancing and the agency has become nothing more than a political arm of the administration in power.
